Hi everyone,
OK. So the tail ring does contribute aerodynamically. But it also protects the fins. Isn't that true?
I wasn't quite ready to introduce this. In light of the current discussion, however, I will do so now. It is the first rocket that I designed using OpenRocket. A few of the components are taken directly from a copy of the OpenRocket file for the LOC/Precision Doorknob. Nevertheless, the overall design is mine, and I call it The Needle. I still have some details to work out. For this rocket, the tail ring also protects the fins, I think.
Incidentally, I don't know how to show just the picture of 3D Finished, so I am uploading the file.
Also, incidentally, now that I am learning the program, I really love OpenRocket for rocket design.
